His appeal to the party faithful comes after former national chairman of APC Chief Bisi Akande, former governor of Ogun State Chief Olusegun Osoba, and Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu threw their weight behind a potential re-run by President Tinubu.

According to him, the statement was ill-timed.

He said it was time to put a halt to the 2027 conversation in the statement signed by his media aide, Rasheed Abubakar.

He advised those who are talking about 2027 to allow Tinubu to focus on how to provide solutions to the current economic downturn in the country.

“We find it imperative to address the growing distractions being posed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration by political opportunists focused on the 2027 elections. At a time when our nation grapples with the serious aftermath of past governance failures, the focus must remain steadfastly on solutions for the pressing challenges facing Nigerians.

“As the country continues to strive towards recovery and stability, it is crucial that we all prioritize the urgent needs of our citizens over personal political ambitions. The hardship many Nigerians endure today is a direct consequence of past policies and dishonest leadership. It is our shared responsibility to rally around President Tinubu and support his efforts to navigate these turbulent times rather than diverting his attention to future political contests.

“The time for politicking will come, but right now, we must ensure that the government is not burdened by unnecessary distractions. Those who are currently comfortable in their positions and benefiting from previous administrations’ mismanagement should reflect on the suffering of ordinary Nigerians. Their focus should be on contributing to the governance of our nation rather than seeking to capitalize on the situation for their own gain.

“We urge all political actors and stakeholders to allow President Tinubu and his administration the space they need to enact the necessary reforms and policies that will lead us towards a more prosperous future. Let us prioritize the welfare of our people and work together towards rebuilding our great nation. “In conclusion, it is essential that we unite as a nation, placing the interests of our citizens above individual ambitions. Let President Tinubu govern and implement the changes needed for our collective healing and progress.”…For More READ THE FULL STORY ▶▶
